   SB 679, Johnston.  Education:  California State University.
   Existing law requires the California State University to offer

for maintenance and operation of physical facilities located on the
site of the Stockton Development Center, and $300,000 would be
allocated to the trustees for purposes of funding a feasibility study
regarding the site to be conducted by the trustees, the Department
of General Services, the Department of Finance, and the City of
Stockton, as required by the bill.  The study would be required to be
completed by September 1, 2000.
